City of Saints Coffee Roasters

the single origin pour-over is the thing to start with here, if you want to understand what city of saints is actually doing. it's not the flashiest order, but it's the one that shows the roasting decisions most clearly. rooted in bushwick's quieter industrial pockets, meserole street doesn't pull a lot of foot traffic by accident, and a roaster that's held real local regard in this city for this long has had to mean it. you can build a morning around this place without overthinking it. the espresso-based drinks are solid, the roasting operation gives the whole menu a coherence you notice after a few visits. end the morning with a cortado and whatever single origin they're featuring on the bar that week.
